Avian flu outbreak spreads, but at weaker pace than past cycles
Highly pathogenic avian influenza is again spreading through U.S. poultry flocks, but on a smaller scale than past outbreaks. Still, experts warn an uptick in cases could occur this winter.
HPAI has been confirmed in 97 U.S. flocks in the last 30 days, affecting a total of 1.33 million birds. Forty-nine of these flocks are commercial, while 54 are backyard flocks.
One additional case was confirmed in Iowa on Tuesday, affecting 18,000 turkeys, according to Don McDowell, director of communications
